DENVER—Colorado’s wet weather has done more than flood streets and cause mud slides. It’s also putting a damper on work for some people.
The Grand Junction Sentinel reports that first deep snow and now drenching rains have made it tough for loggers to reach some parts of the forest, shutting down work at a timber mill in Montrose. Work has been delayed this week at the Intermountain Resources lumber mill.
Work at the western Colorado mill is expected to resume Monday.
In northeastern Colorado, all the rain is delaying the wheat harvest. A lack of moisture had been a problem earlier this spring for the wheat crop in Weld County. The Greeley Tribune reports the harvest is now two weeks behind because of the rain.
